Ponyville receives its fair shares of ponies moving in and out. However, while everyone has their secrets, one has one that's different than most. As he finds himself learning more and more about the town and its folk, will the saying "nothing stays secret forever" hold true? And what does it mean for those he cares about?
Familiar setups with new twists mix in with the tale of the new guy in town. He's not the cause of all changes, but can certainly bring some himself.

Chapters (28)
I'm not usually one for stories that involve an OC as a main character, but I'm interested to see what happens next with Flick!
Also, why do I get the feeling that Twilight is going to be Flick's love interest?
Nice.
Good comeback there, Flick. XD
As a side note, I love the interaction between Flick and Twi. Can't wait to read more!
Man, was I expecting AJ to slap or punch him. Flick really lays it on thick when it comes to flirting.
I wonder if that's going to get him in trouble in the future with Twilight? 
I'd suggest a comma after the "yes."
-facehooves- Stubborn Applejack is stubborn.
"Honey, we can see right through you! Girl, ya can't conceal it! We know how ya feel and who you're thinking of~" 🎼
You better stop having these two interact Enigma, because I'm beginning to ship them. Hard. XD
"Best friends". Riiiight.
Eh, not much. Just tantabus's, ursa minor/major's, bugbear's, parasprites, moving DJ platforms, etc.
Another good chapter! I'm looking forward to seeing who Flick brings to the Grill!
I'll see myself out.
That's what I do when I work on the reaction episodes.
Is that a callback to the Dragonshy episode where Rainbow Dash was sent flying by the dragons roar and she knocked the rest of the girls (except for Fluttershy) down like bowling pins?
Him?
*adjusts monocle* Yes, quite.
Pfft. No kidding. >.>
It appears as if Rainbow is asking that question, so I'd suggest editing it to this...
Rainbow pouts as Flick pats her on the head.
“Ready to go, Dash?” he asks, looking to her.
She looks back at him and nods. “Sure.”
All around a good chapter, and I'm glad to see that Silk Tease has entered the story! I'm looking forward to more scenes with her.
Dat *ss.😎
There's two spaces between the paragraphs.
Yeahhh, RD. Are ya...jealous?
Nice one, Applejack. XD
Between those two there are extra spaces between a couple of the paragraphs. *reads further down the chapter* Actually, there are more, so I'd suggest checking the whole chapter.
Hay, skewer? How would that even work?
It seems like there's a word missing or something between "her" and "before".
*says in robotic voice* Locked on targets. Engage.
If you only knew, Twi. If you only knew.
...I can't!
Cheeky cock.
*is shot*
*watches as the Jundash ship sinks* ...It was nice while it lasted.
Doctor Whooves? Is that you?
It took me a few moments to realize who "she" was, so I'd suggest changing it to "Rainbow pauses for a moment"
The cuteness!
I love the interaction these two have!
...But I also love the interaction between Flick and Silk Tease as well as AJ! Argh, stop making me ship them all with Flick, Enigma! 
I could say that about my sleeping routine. Or what little routine I have. XD
Oh, Flick. You and your smooth words.
It's a good thing she's a pony or else this would be considered sexual assault. XD
You said nope twice, Applejack.
In my headcanon Applejack has only one hat because she inherited it from her dad, so I feel you, Flick.
Oh, yes he can.
Serves him right.
Something's wrong with this sentences...
There we go!
Can it be? She's kissing him?
Ah, HORSEAPP- Actually, I'm good with that.
Everyone wants that giant turkey. xP
SpongeBob Narrator: 1 week later
Applejack, don't you know? It's Pinkie. Don't question it.
Or shippers. >.>
I think there's a paragraph missing? o.o
You're not the only one who must have a dirty mind, Flick.
Flirt with Rainbow or Twilight? ;D
Oh, Twi. You're so adorkable. :3
Aw, no science?
Stop being so cute Twi, darn it! >3<
WARNING!! FRIEND ZONE IN SIGHT!!
FRIEND ZONE HAS BEEN AVERTED!!
There's two jokes I could do. Decisions...decisions.. Eh, I'll go with both!
Stranger danger!
Somebody's watching me~🎶
Meep meep!
It's time for the kiss of life!
Kawarimi no Jutsu! Ninja Flick confirmed!
Of course Pinkie would find it fun. XD
Why do I get the feeling one of them is going to be Applejack? ._.
She's not the only one who wants you two to do something. >B)
Boy ain't that the truth!
They'll never stop! Not until they prank you, my princess, and your little bird friend too! >8D
What? o_o Before she what?! Me wants to know! DX
I feel your pain, Flick. *rubs cheeks* =~=
Oh, my~ What kind of dreams are you having there, Applejack?
Food solves everything. XD
She reacted way calmer than I would. I would've shoved him off the bed. Or rolled off of it, taking him with me. XD
Gee, I wonder what that certain thing could be.
*tries to picture how a pony would be able to tie their mane and tail up* ...I'd actually like to see how that'd work. >.>
Aw, Applebloom.
Which one of nature's calls? That is the question.
Literally.
themselves?
I think that the rotating cloud trick deserves more mention in the comments. That was pretty funny.
do that.
Wow. Even Granny's in on it.
If the main OCs in this story were voiced, what would they sound like? Do the Spa ponies have voice actresses?
Ahh... Is it safe to be reading this?
Typo:
stripping
9448808
I think that it's still teen until things get explicit. I'm not sure.
9450052
Probably, but it did start getting a bit steamy at one point. Reminds me of that one scene in Legacy where the one main character has similar issues understanding what type of massage to use...
9450788
I never heard of Legacy. I will do my best not to cross that line in the future, though.
I wouldn't even wear that in the privacy of my own home.
I believe an "at" is meant to be there.
It's not like griffons wear any clothes, and their tails are not half as thick as a ponies.
Turned.
This... Dear lord, this can be taken out of context.
Hmm... I wonder who that could've been?
THE POWER OF LUST IS A CURIOUS THING! MAKES ONE MAN WEEP, AND ANOTHER MAN SING!
The last part of the sentence seems like there's an error.
Rainbow must be so close to saying, "ANSWER ME FEATHER BRAIN!
"
It was at that moment Silk knew...Flick was a Casanova.
Ohhhh shiiii~ Things are about to go dow-
Aw.
Harem time!
Boi, that's because your style of flirtation doesn't effect Pinkie.
Oh, but Applejack! He's just trying to sow his apple seeds in multiple fields!
Don't you dare!
At least one can say she has the grit!
stands? Or stood? Not sure.
Aaaand out comes Sci-Twi.
Grifficorn.
I suggest replacing the highlighted word with "Rainbow" since I was confused at first. I thought it was Twilight, not Rainbow.
Capital T. xP
All I can imagine is it saying, “...so who are you gonna buck first?” instead.
Or if it means having a foursome.
I can sympathize. My little toe has a habit of smashing into the corners of things.
Since Silk was the one being mentioned in the sentence prior, you might want to change "her rump" to "Twilight's rump".
She'll just overwork herself through a different outlet.
All I can imagine now is Rainbow putting someone in the hospital and then dressing up as a nurse to take care of them.
Oh?
Just don't give anyone butterfly wings.
If that's the case I've been on a looooooot of dates.
That's Amore~🎵 ...I can't believe I didn't correlate that sooner
Nah, it's Starlight Glimmer. FlickxStar FTW!
I believe you meant "pays"?
Looks like Cadence shoehorned that in.
Okay. Now I know for sure EXACTLY who this guy is.
Just don't grill the salad.
Gordon Ramsay might get upset.
Heh.
Heh. Dash is a leeeeetle tsundere
Story of my life.
I'm beginning to think that the entire purpose of this story is to make the reader uncomfortable.
Not pancakes?
Ha. I knew it.
10073297
What did you mean by this, specifically? It's your only comment that confused me.
Bookhorse is nerd.
Me too.
After all this, how much you wanna bet he ends up with someone completely different than this group?
Ooh, Trixie! Yes, Trixie and Flick.
I ship it.
Bahaha.
Wait... WHAT!?!
10078912
Right before, Twilight raised a hoof to her nose. It's a nosebleed.
10079513
Miiiiiiight wanna clarify that. Some people might get the wrong idea.
10079570
Fair point.
10073297
Uncomfortable? I'm pretty amused. And my suspicions on him being a changeling are being further confirmed.
I know this is rated T, but I still get uncomfortable trying to read this at work. It's full of so much razor-edge innuendo that I pretty much have to read this when I'm alone.
10128030
Sorry, it tends to get that way when Silk is involved. ^^;
10073505
I was kinda half-joking. The story is so full of innuendo that it tends to make me a little uncomfortable. Not in a bad way, mind you, I just have to be careful who I read this around, lest someone gets the wrong idea.
You've ever seen those anime where the guy accidentally trips, and ends up falling on top of a girl, and someone walks in, getting the completely wrong idea? It's that kind of uncomfortable. Funny, but in a squirmy kinda way. I'm not complaining, just voicing my thoughts.
